Pam Bondi Sworn In As U.S. Attorney General

5 weeks ago Pam Bondi has been sworn in as attorney general. She's taking charge of the Justice Department as it braces for upheaval with President Donald Trump looking to exert his will over an agency that's long provoked his ire. The ceremony took place Wednesday in the Oval Office and it was the first time that the Republican president had participated in a second-term swearing-in of a Cabinet member. It was further evidence of Trump’s intense personal interest in the operations of the department that investigated him during his first term and then brought two since-abandoned indictments after he left office in 2021.
